Hi, There is a tidbit of Mac and USB info to share here though. Low voltage in a USB series can cause devices not to charge or function properly. What I mean by a series is a chain of connected USB devices that run off a single USB powered bus. So for example, if you have a power hungry device plugged into the keyboard, along with a mouse, depending on the voltage requirements of the USB device, you may not have enough to charge it or allow it to operate properly. Note that some USB drive enclosures have double USBBplugs. This is solely to draw extra power from the USB bus in order to power the hard drive.
In general, My suggestion is to run such things off of a powered USB hub and avoid daisy chaining USB devices other than keyboard and mouse whenever possible.. And this applies to any system.
